Chapter 173: The Regime (1)

Many of the generals immediately knelt on the ground and pleaded, but the crown prince and queen did not waver at all. After a while, Ding Junguang was taken to the main hall, and the prince walked up to him and said: "General Ding, if you are willing to hand over the tiger talisman, I will intercede with the queen mother to spare your family, otherwise you know that the murder of the emperor will destroy the nine clans!" ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, I have never murdered the emperor, I was wronged!"

"Even if you have a hard mouth, you can't avoid the facts, everyone is watching, and no one can prove your innocence!" The prince roared.

"I can prove General Ding's innocence!" At this moment, Xiao Hongxi walked out.

"How do you prove it?" The prince straightened up and glared at Xiao Hongxi in front of him.

"Ever since my father was murdered, I have been sending someone to investigate this matter, and after my investigation, General Ding was wronged in this matter, come here, bring the real prisoner!" Xiao Hongxi shouted to the guards beside him.

At this moment, the guards walked to the main hall with Ding Rongwen, and everyone looked at Ding Rongwen in shock. The crown prince laughed even more and said, "Are you accusing me that Ding Rongwen is the murderer of my father?" Are their Ding family's father and son all colluding? Ha ha! It's so much fun! ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, please see clearly, this person is not Ding Rongwen! He is a pretend, the real Ding Rongwen has been killed, this person is the person who took General Ding's arrow to murder his father that day. Xiao Hongxi said loudly to the other ministers.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was talking about it, looking at Ding Rongwen in front of him, many generals who supported him shouted angrily to kill him.

When the prince saw this scene, he immediately said to Xiao Hongxi: "What about the poison in my father's emperor? If he is a murderer, there will definitely be an antidote, since you say that he is a murderer, why don't you let him detoxify his father, and let his father's life be in danger? The prince said angrily.

These words really stimulated the thoughts of the ministers, and everyone's eyes immediately shifted to Xiao Hongxi, as if he was deliberately delaying time to assassinate the emperor.

"This matter is really useless to me, I have never been able to find the antidote, there is no antidote in this person at all, he was instructed to murder his father!"

"And who do you say he was instructed by?" The queen stood up and asked excitedly.

"I guess it's better for this person to say it himself!" Xiao Hongxi glanced at Ding Rongwen who was kneeling on the ground.

At this moment, Ding Rongwen looked at the people around him tremblingly, Ding Junguang was angry when he saw him, and he didn't know how to vent the anger in his heart, he shouted at Ding Rongwen: "Say, who asked you to frame General Ben?" ”

"Yes, yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who sent me to steal General Ding's arrows and put poison in his room! Ding Rongwen said tremblingly.

"Nonsense! When am I sending you to do these things! You're all nonsense! The prince retorted excitedly.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you promised me that as long as I do what you tell me, you will give me a way to live, but why do you want to kill them all, you are really too vicious! The queen mother's qiē was arranged by the prince, he asked me to frame General Ding, and he also asked me to pretend to be Ding Rongwen to approach General Ding to steal the tiger talisman! Ding Rongwen loudly accused the prince.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned and everyone looked at the prince, the prince was shocked at the moment, but he immediately adjusted his feelings, looked at the queen and said: "Queen Mother, this is obviously deliberately framing the son-in-law, his words cannot be true at all, even if I send someone, I will not do anything to my father, please let the queen mother know!" ”

"This! What the hell is going on! Who the hell should I trust? "The queen is in a dilemma.

"Queen Mother, it is impossible for me to harm His Majesty, the truth of this matter has been revealed, please give me justice!" Ding Junguang knelt on the ground and said loudly.

Feeling the pressure coming in her direction, the queen was a little overwhelmed, if this matter was not handled well, it might affect the crown prince's accession to the throne, which was the last thing she wanted to see.

"It's just that how can such a witness prove that he was sent by the prince, this person will be taken into custody first, and I will be interrogated strictly!" The queen pointed to Ding Rongwen in front of her and said.

"Queen Mother, now that things are in front of you, why do you still want to protect the prince, how can you explain to your father when you do this?"

Xiao Hongxi said with some excitement.

"Bold! When do you dare to speak to this palace in such a tone, this palace has its own truth! The country cannot be without a king for a day, and now that His Majesty is critically ill, I will elect the crown prince to succeed to the throne! The queen said angrily.

All of them looked at each other, thinking about which side to support. Suddenly, several ministers stretched out their hands and shouted: "The crown prince succeeds to the throne!" The crown prince succeeds to the throne! ”

The crown prince saw everyone electing him at this moment, and the queen supported him again, and his face was full of excitement.

"Queen Mother, the new emperor must have the holy decree of His Majesty, you recommend the crown prince to succeed to the throne like this, and when the time comes, you should end up with the truth that the name is not right, and the old minister will wait for His Majesty to wake up and then follow His Majesty's will!" The Ministry of Rites Shangshu stepped forward and said.

"Huh! The emperor has already made a decree to pass the throne to the crown prince, and someone will bring the holy decree to the palace! The queen shouted to the eunuch behind her.

The eunuch walked out with the decree in his hands held high, and he read it aloud, and everyone listened to it in amazement.

"Queen Mother, I don't know when His Majesty's holy decree was promulgated, why haven't I heard His Majesty mention it?" The lieutenant walked to the front and asked.

"Is the Taiwei suspecting that the palace is falsely transmitting the holy decree?"

"The old minister doesn't dare!" The lieutenant immediately knelt on the ground and said.

"Do you have any objections, ministers? If there is no objection, choose a day to let the new emperor ascend the throne! The queen looked at the crowd with an angry face.

"Queen Mother, don't do it, Your Majesty is still there, you can't set up a new emperor, it's not in line with the legislation!"

Shangshu of the Ministry of Works walked out and shouted at the queen. At this moment, the prince gave the guard next to him a look, and the guard walked up to the Ministry of Justice, drew his sword and cut off his head, which frightened everyone present.

"Do any of you have any opinions?" The prince looked at everyone with a smile.

At this moment, a column of troops ran in from outside to surround the hall tightly, and the prince glanced at it with a smile and said, "If any of you disagree, then please leave!" ”

As soon as the prince finished speaking, the guards drew half of their swords and signaled to everyone.

"Prince, are you trying to usurp power? How sad it would be if my father knew you did this! He's still unconscious, can't you wait? Xiao Hongxi said angrily.

After the prince laughed, he approached Xiao Hongxi step by step, walked in front of him and said, "Don't pretend to be a filial son in front of me, now that I am comparing my ability, you have the ability to arrest me?" Don't worry, I'll make you look good when I ascend the throne! ”

"I advise you to let it go, or you'll regret it!" Xiao Hongxi said angrily.

"Okay, I'm here to see who the two of us have the last laugh!" The prince said unconvinced.

The prince walked in front of Ding Junguang, pulled his collar and said, "Hand over the tiger talisman, I can spare your life, otherwise I want your whole family to want to see you in Huangquan!" ”

"I won't give it to you, don't be delusional!" Ding Junguang twisted his head to the other and ignored him completely.

"Good! Come! Bring them all to me! The prince shouted to the guards behind him.

At this moment, the guards outside the hall walked in with the Ding family, each of them had a knife on their bodies, and Ding Junguang was very worried and scared after seeing this.

"General! General, help us! The second lady shouted loudly.

"General save me!"

Hearing the heart-rending cries for help from his family, Ding Junguang was almost crazy, and he shouted loudly to the prince: "What do you want?" ”

"I don't want to do anything, now as long as you hand over the Tiger Talisman, then I can release them!" The prince said with a smile.

"I won't pay it!" Ding Junguang gritted his teeth and said.

"Don't pay it? Yes! Let me see! That's it! After speaking, the prince turned his body to the crowd and took the second lady's arm and pushed it to the ground.
